Sort-of memes that are cracking you up at the moment

One joke. They have one joke.

Also: not a great look for you.

Not sure if that joke is laughing at trans people, or just at the basketball being similar to the pumpkin. remove the writing and it's actually funnier.

Oh FFS it's a joke and I'm sure there's a lot of trans people with a sense of humour that actually laugh when they see that.

No one is laughing at trans jokes. Trust us.

This is just silly

I find it helps to judge the offensiveness of memes by the cuntishness of those who turn up to defend them.

Hmmmm.

There are people that identify as cats and wear ears and whiskers, some as vampires who drink blood and have their teeth sharpened into fangs, etc...

I see no direct reference to a trans person unless a pumpkin is some sort of emoji aubergine nob thing I don't understand.

My doctor said I should avoid trans fats

I said mind your own business I'll date who I want

Prediction: Today will not be a vintage meme-thread day.

I see no direct reference to a trans person...

The basketball is an inanimate object and doesn’t identify as anything. It’s clearly being used as a metaphor for a trans person/trans people.

Is it? Or could it be a reference to dragonkin/agekin/otherkin or any other kind of genuinely weird stuff that's out there. The motorbike<>bike thing was clearly a reference to trans people due to the ongoing debate about trans people in sport. The basketball pumpkin thing could be just referencing the daft extremes that some people have taken self identification to.

It's a hateful cliche used by transphobes who are too fucking thick to realise they're saying "Look how ridiculous the trans debate is as I compare trans people with pumpkins, or motorbikes, or vampires". It's really all they've got, that and randomly yelling "You've got a penis!"

It's the same shit joke Piers Morgan makes, which should tell you enough really.

Not to shoot fish in a barrel but the Loose Women asked Kerry Katona about Sam Smith declaring themselves non-binary. You could have bet your house on what Kerry would say and it would be a safe bet.

"Listen. I love Sam"

she said.

"But he's got a penis. It's science!"

Literally 74.8% of transphobes' time is spent saying "You've got a penis". It's like heroin for them.

Waiting for the usual suspects to say "it's political correctness gone mad" or "it's just banter".

Which incidentally, was said several times when I fired somebody for being a racist yesterday.

YOU'RE the real racist for calling that person racist!

probably.

If that doesn't draw a line under this sorry incident for everyone I don't know what will
